Hallo! This is an addition to: Bug 4102: BiDi: Mozilla Firefox and Netscape can not display enough space between tabs if LTR / RTL properties of content language and selected user interface differ http://test.leuksman.com/index.php?title=test_foo_bar&action=edit&uselang=he I see the tabs (squeezed together) in the following order 1. Article - (not translated) 2. history - גירסאות קודמות 3. edit - עריכה 4. talk - שיחה 5. protect - (not translated) 6. delete - (not translated) – I am a sysop ;-) 7. move - (not translated) 8. unwatch - (not translated) http://test.leuksman.com/index.php?title=test_foo_bar&uselang=he has at the right end an additional 1. validate - (not translated) This bug is related to Mozilla Firefox and Netscape. Internet Explorer looks fine. For Internet Explorer the location of the icon user.gif from http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/*checkout*/wikipedia/phase3/skins/monobook/user.gif is misplaced. best regards reinhardt [[user:gangleri]]
Bug 4236: BiDi support for the personal toolbar relates to a similar problem not about tabs as here but about the order of the items in the personal toolbar
This appears to simply be because the translation is incomplete. Correct?
Correct! On the other hand there are so many languages where LanguageXx.php is "much behind" what is "available" at "Special:Allmessages" at the main language wiki at the WikiMedia foundation. Some communities are small, most of the few active contributors take care about content and probably are not skilled in MediaWiki to that level as most of the developers are. These LanguageXx.php will be long time be behind those from the languages with a large amount of contributors. To overcome the "chicken and egg" situation here called "If the user interface would be translated properly MediaWiki would work fine" we should tray to keep the impact of the "site effects" as low as possible. I suggest to leave the bug open. Possibly a solution could be found or the technical problem solves due to other changes / improuvements. best regards reinhardt [[user:gangleri]]
